I think it's akin to stealing. I agree with those who said the presumption is that you get free b'fast with a stay in one of their rooms. I differentiate wifi use because there's not the same cost of goods sold involved. One person using the wifi doesn't preclude others from using it. At b'fast, on the other hand, if you go in and devour their bacon & eggs, that means someone else can't (or at least, the hotel has to cook up more and use up more inventory).

I honestly cannot think of a "free" hotel b'fast that I'd ever want to "steal", however. Seems to me that most of the ones I've had were of the "continental" variety.
